Episode Details

History shows that our nation was to continue the "reformation" struggle in England between religious liberty and religious tolerance that had ended with restoration of the monarchy and the Church of England's primacy. But, recent First Amendment religious liberty arguments made to the U.S. Supreme Court show that we have forgotten that history and God' purpose for our nation. Today, David will demonstrate that  esteemed early Justice Joseph Story wrote about it, picking up language used by John Owen and contained in the 1658 Savoy Declaration. He'll show the U.S. Supreme Court once understood it, too. This week shows that it is time for the Church to get back to the mission given it pertaining to harmonious reconciliation of religious liberty and righteous and just civil law.
